Name: Eduardo Garagorri
Opponent: Ricardo Ramos
Odds: +310 (bet $100 to win $310)
In his UFC career, Ramos has had trouble with those who he doesn’t hold a distinct striking advantage over. He was losing throughout the entire fight to Aiemann Zahabi before landing a big knockout blow. He also got worked over by Said Nurmagomedov, and that includes before getting stopped.
Garagorri has a Muay Thai background and it shows in the cage. He’s hard to hit and gets plenty of power shots in himself. He’ll also have a slight reach advantage over Ramos that will only be heightened by his sense of distance.
It’s also worth noting that Garagorri has an underrated ground game, with three of his last five wins coming by submission. At over 3-to-1 odds, you have to like the idea of playing Garagorri.
Record: 12-25
